Bremner, Bird and Fortune

[@s77007]

What a gem of a piece ! brilliantly written and put together with perfect timing, Fantastic depth of issues from global warming to co2 emissions to terrorist attacks and absolutely perfect truth!

[@leeadams995]

This is even funnier and more relevant now than when it was first released. Genius.

[@bennewinn1101]

I agree

[@Carfer22]

Shopping for peace! Brilliant line!

[@mico2020]

the show is full of humour and outstanding social and political commentry, you laugh and learn at the same time, 10/10 good job

[@iancrause1856]

Some of the best satire I've ever seen. Absolute classics and almost forgotten now for some reason. Time for a revisit.

[@MrDaiseymay]

iN THE MAD WORLD ( woke) THAT WE LIVE IN, TRUE SATIRE OF THIS QUALITY, BY THESE TRULY TALENTED GREATS, WAS THROTTLED SOME YEARS AGO, AS INDEED, COMEDY ITSELF. SADLY, MANY OF THESE GREATS ARE NO LONGER WITH US, AND THERE IS NOBODY TO REPLACE THEM ANYWAY.

[@mico2020]

wow! 100% true social commentary, these guys are genius

[@smjpepys]

the thing about britain is that a middle class has developed so well and so thoroughly that nobody accepts that they arent middle class, and those who are working class aspire to be middle class.... so in actual fact the 'middle classness' of the sketch is perfect for the menatlity of all britons.

[@IsidorAikos]

Being middle class, I can say that this is exactly what the middle class act like, at least where I come from.

[@saltspringrailway3683]

Excellent script, brilliantly acted.

[@dm121984]

Excellent video, but sadly, the thing about China is (or was - not sure about if this is still true) true - if the UK shut off all carbon production overnight, China would make up the difference in about 2 months.

[@MrDaiseymay]

India is just as bad now.

[@RoskinGreenrake]

Has to be said that ''feeling guilty'' about various things now in 2021 is beginning to have a shine to it, in the sense of standing up for your own at least.

[@GretneRebirth]

Don't know if it's been said already, but the dark-haired woman plays the villainess in the previous series of Doctor Who - Madame Kovarian.

[@sheilacornett5109]

So sad to learn today of the death of John Bird. Watching this old clip still makes me laugh.

[@TheOptioneerJM]

"Shopping for Peace" now that's Brilliant and Funny!

[@Deanonottz]

Had to watch it again! We are flying club class but its the chavs that fly on Ryanair for 9p that pollute the air!

[@sanguinus]

It's not taking the piss out of PC or environmentalism. It's taking the piss out of clueless people complaining about political correctness and environmentalism.

[@SANDSCORCHER]

4:00 Last thing you want to lose to the Chinese is your shirt. We’ve already lost everything else ! 🤷‍♂️

[@pianomonica]

Absolutely hilarious, if it weren't so true: "Bugger the younger generation." LOL.

[@artsed08]

The chavs who go on Ryanair for ninepence 🤣

[@dufus7396]

This is how Boris became PM

[@Ropponmatsu2]

The amusing thing about these sketches is that John Bird and John Fortune were both on TW3 when the two women weren't even born. If you think about the situation, no-one comments upon what a couple of dirty old men they effectively are, in having "wives" who are that young....

[@afaf233]

@madasamattarch i love the english people an d humor...real funny

[@maartenvandam344]

Why should we be worried about future generations? What have they ever done for us? :-)

[@moggydave]

^^^ more accurate middle class snobbery and ignorance. so us really. very observant

[@CatObsessed]

Simply shows how people never do things until someone does it first. That's why Copenhagen failed.

[@agentk1986]

It seems each generation thinks they are better and harder workers than the next generation. The Baby Boomers are starting to talk like these people in the skit, my parents among them.

[@ruok07]

My God! is such a previllege not to be posh! These lot haven't got a life. Did you notice that none of them even eat their food.. What a boring bunch! lol.. But Classic sketch though.

[@judyanddavid]

O

[@wane7jk]

great! But the brunette's terrible.

[@MrDaiseymay]

'terribly good actress
